Module name (EN):
Name of module in study programme. It should be precise and clear.
Hardware Modelling
Degree programme:
Study Programme with validity of corresponding study regulations containing this module.
Electrical Engineering, Master, ASPO 01.10.2005

Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

E913 Electrical Engineering, Master, ASPO 01.10.2005 , semester 9, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 150 hours (equivalent to 5 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 105 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Volker Schmitt
Lecturer:
Prof. Dr. Volker Schmitt

Learning outcomes:
This course provides students with a comprehensive introduction to the hardware description languages VHDL and VHDL-A. Combined with the extensive practical training in the use of typical software tools, students will be able to work independently to develop complex circuits and systems.
